A Canton homeowner called us when their Frigidaire dryer would rotate but does not have any heat. We found failed coil valves along with a worn belt and damaged timer knob that needed replacement.
The Problem
The customer reported that the dryer will rotate but does not have any heat. The drum was turning normally, but clothes weren’t drying because no heated air was circulating through the system.
Diagnosis
Our inspection revealed multiple failed components affecting the dryer’s heating system. The coil valves had stopped functioning, preventing proper gas flow to the burner assembly. We also found the drive belt was worn and the timer knob was damaged.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: 279834-COIL-VALVE, 134011703-KNOB,TIMER,WHITE/GRAY, 134503600-BELT DRYER
- Work performed: Replaced coil valves, belt, and timer knob
- Result: Dryer now heats properly and operates normally
Is It Worth Repairing?
Frigidaire dryers are generally reliable appliances that respond well to proper repairs. The FDG336RES2 is a solid mid-range model, and replacing core components like coil valves typically restores full functionality for several more years of service.
Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Dryers
- Clean the lint filter before every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
- Check and clean the exhaust vent annually to prevent moisture buildup and reduce strain on components
- Inspect the drive belt periodically for signs of fraying or stretching that could lead to failure
